jessica harrington

she gets away with murder always teeing one up for her owners at the expense of punters- like the horse the other night for her son in law (never put into a race before).

The owner gets punished by banning the horse from running for 42 days, no appeal apparently

i looked at the race again.it wasnt that bad.far worse goes on every day on the all weather    he was pumping away  3 out...stayed on past beaten horses

Unless the jockey has mastered the difficult art of "Strangling whilst looking like riding" he can count himself a tad unlucky,a 14/1 rag gets beaten by a well supported 2nd fav and the Stewards decide this is the one to exercise them and meanwhile it's going on all over the place all season,maybe it's a new get tough campaign.....

he had him dropped out and fair enough it looked like a stopping job for most of it.but he was riding vigourously(at least thats how it looked) from 3 out.if he was really stopping it surley he wud have ridden it into other horses or found traffic problems etc..i know people see jp ones being given "easy" ones regularly but this was a bad example to my eye anyway

No sympathy for a woman who allows Robbie Power to ride her horses.

agree!!

Under strict instructions not to appeal.

The fine will be paid for her.

Trainer Jessica Harrington and Jockey Mark Bolger have both lodged appeals against the decisions of the Tipperary stewards following the running of the Tipperary Supporters Club Maiden Hurdle last Friday.
The Harrington trained and Bolger ridden High Tail It caught the attention of the stewards when finishing fast to take second place in the race and at a subsequent enquiry the pair were adjudged to be in breach of Rule 212.

Harrington was fined E1,000, Bolger was suspended for 7 days and ordered to forfeit his riding fee while the horse was banned from running for a period of 42 days.

Mrs Harrington has appealed the E1,000 fine and the suspension of the horse while Bolger has appeal both his suspension and the forfeiture of his fee.

The cheque from Kilmallock must have bounced.

Under strict instructions not to appeal.

A guess (or as he likes to call it a 'deduction') presented as established FACT by someone purporting to be in the know.

Cringeworthy.

Lol!

Wildman I am surprised you have been caught out as a bluffer. I did think you were an honest guy

All your low attention spans are kicking in, you can't follow the thread

Ya gotta take a view guys

Wildman could be the Eamon Dunphy of Racing Punditry, minus the leftiness of course, matters jockey excepted.

Dan is funny all the same....combined forces....conspiracy theories....hyperbole.....a handy gobbshiite.....

I was at The Curragh on Sunday met someone from that stable,I told them ye would be mad not to appeal as I thought the horse tried.

Their reply was not allowed to and tab picked up by owner.

At the risk of upsetting the forum hothead I think they may have heeded my advice and gone against the norm.

Ya I'd say they sat down with JP and said Wilddan is adamant we should appeal.....and he replied...."why didn't ye say".....

Wildman I would be fairly positive about the fella your are talking about and he wouldn't know when he has enough ate.

How you think that horse tried is beyond me. Like all JP maiden hurdle runners he was out for the spin and jockey made a balls of it. It makes absolutely no sense for a horse from that operation to try and win a maiden hurdle in mid-April.

Dan the next time you are racing would you be so kind as to extend our congratulations to Kate.....terrific news....what a wonderful "surprise ".....

He started off wide and out the back,the usual telltale signs but when the race started to hot up Bolger went after the horse,he didnt just sit motionless,he rousted the horse along and he responded.

He flew by some tired horses and that's what the Stewards saw,that's why they acted,its also why they were run.

He went after the horse because he didn't want to get dropped after three out when the horse got a little outpaced. Not much point running if he wasn't going to get within the requirements for the run to count towards a mark. He obviously hadn't a clue about the horse he had under him though and he couldn't hide him up the straight despite there being a wall of horses in front of him.

Clear as day follows night he wasn't off. Just because you motion a little on a horse shouldn't excuse you getting hauled in when it's blatant what happened.

Which Kate ?

Katie Walsh on her Irish National win.
Katie T on making a mockery of a handicap in Limerick ( will put it up to Annie Power in Punchestown )
Kate Bush on her comeback tour.
Katie Melua in her bycycle counting.

Last minute intervention by Borneo QC via a half wit stable-hand overturns JP's original command not to to appeal.

Is that about the gist of it?

Kate Harrington of course....Jessica will be thrilled too.....

They'll have to split half of The Hill so

The hothead will rush to your defence Ozymandius but you don't seem to be able to differentiate between obvious skitting comments and serious ones.

I can't quite work out whether the Kate Harrington references are skitting or serious,fairly sure not complimentary to the lovely Katie.

Wonder was mom there overseeing the operation ....just to make sure everything was ok....may have even had to give the jockey the leg up..,,

Oh she's lovely alright Dan....really lovely....

Is there anybody you like ?

Snobs bluffers and frauds are 3 categories that tend to displease me.....and those categories cover

Snobs bluffers and frauds are 3 categories that tend to displease me.....and those categories cover

Cover the bulk of the racing fraternity.....i dont obviously throw bouquets at people quite as often as you do.....but then again mediocrity sits well with you Dan.....
even the toilets at your local racecourse where the shiite is flowing out over the top of the bowl.....doent meet with displeasure from your good self.....

Snob would cover yourself,you look down at your fellow countrymen.

You take every opportunity to denigrate Ireland and its racecourses.

Your preoccupation with toilets is worrying but if they offend you so why not go before you arrive at the track.
Rocketfingrs needs to use toilets due to his nervousness I would have thought you were made of sterner stuff.

Appeal successful,jockey could have been more forceful and ban reduced from 7 to 4 days.
